I’m Christina Schweighardt, a Southern California-based book cover designer.

I design book covers for authors who are done pretending a Canva template is fine.

It's not fine.

I live in San Diego, CA, where I grew up.

I started designing book covers in 2018 as a freelance designer and have found a love for taking what's on the inside and creating something worthy of being judged.

Apart from work, I'm studying Interior Architecture & Design. I'm the resident baker in my family (I have the best lemon bar recipe). I'm known as Titi to my nieces, who know I always have potato chips in my cupboard.

Beniti is my middle name. No, I'm not Italian. I don't know where it came from.

My dream design project would be a cookbook.
